He asked fans to not buy or stream from the label due to them being "abusive, manipulative, [lying] to their artists and [using] dirty tricks" to keep artists with them, and stating they had been "dragging classic tracks through the mud for years, using outdated artwork, pushing un-approved releases", and encouraged listeners to pirate his music to get around the label.^[23][24] A track list was posted on in June 2021 detailing the songs he wished were no longer affiliated with Plasmapool.^[25][26]
